Hi All-

I'm installing Openstack Components of Folsom-3 milestone from the Tar files available from launchpad.

Can any one guide me on the installation of the these components like the Essex component installation and configuration.

I'm upto this level of Installation.

For instance, Keystone component,

I have untar the file and executed the following commands.

Keystone $> python setup.py build
Keystone $> python setup.py install.

Will these two steps install the respective component and all its necessary components.

With this type of Install can I use the Openstack components as I use them in the 'apt-get' based Essex installation.

Kindly guide me on this...

You are trying to install Folsom from the development version and that is why you are doing source code based installation. I am sure it comes with a README file which explains details about the source file.

Now when you are talking about apt-get best install, it means you are trying to download the package which is bundled by one of the Linux distribution providers repository. Now here is the thing, since Folsom is still in development phase thats why the package based installation is still in process of baking/bake, so folks from Ubuntu are best to answer your question when it will be available.

Lastly source based install is not suggested for Production Environment.

I will hope this solves all your confusion and questions.

Thanks,
